Question

Answer 1

It will vary from person to person, and how much effort she / he puts into it.

Answer 2

let me put it this way if you ride 1 mile at 25mph (very few can)and went home a drank a 12oz can of soda then you gain most likely 10 calories not lose sorry hope this helps

Answer 3

calories burned are relevent to your heart rate and the length of your exercise, not the miles cycled or run. because of the efficiency and speed of a bicycle, you'd have to cover more geography to burn an equal number of calories. bicycling.com has a calorie calculator that'll help you get a ballpark idea of how many calories you burned: http://www.bicycling.com/channel/0,6609,...
